I decided to create this thread as an outlet for everyone to give their rants and dislikes about popular games that sold really well or has been reviewed extremely well (reviews of 8+)

If there is a game that everyone and their mother thinks is amazing but you really REALLY hated it, this is where I'd like you to post which game and the logical reasons why. Don't say the game sucks cause it sucks...as that doesn't tell us anything about your gaming tastes. Provide reasons...

DO NOT POST AND TRY TO DEFEND YOUR FAVOURITE GAME IF SOMEONE IS SAYING IT SUCKS. I KNOW IT’S HARD BUT PLEASE RESIST THE URGE!

I want people to be free to reasonably explain why they didn't like a game without being attacked by the Sony Defense Force...etc...

I'll get the ball rolling.

 

Zelda:Twighlight Princess. 

I remember reading the reviews and IGN saying it is "best launch title since Mario 64" (soul calibur, halo anyone) so when I got my hands on a wii in February this was the only game I purchased. 

To keep my rant short...

- Graphics sucked. The game looks worse than some first gen gamecube titles like Starfox Adventures. I bought this Wii as the next level of gaming and what I got looked worse than most of my PS2 titles.

- The music, dialogue, facial acting and game direction are corny beyond belief. For the first 30 minutes I was treated to some of the corniest and worst text I've seen in a game that wasn't Resident Evil (which is good like that). The lame facial expressions and people yelling "HEYYYY!" like retards did not help.

- Gameplay (apart from some cool boss fights) was not new at all. Even with the new Wii mote it felt dated to me, especially the camera movement. Basically to me this was the same game as Ocarina of Time, Majoras mask (minus the time limit) and Windwaker...but it let you play as a wolf. 

- As good as Wii mote was with Wii sports, this is when I discovered it's going to suck for some games.  I would have paid any money to have a gamecube controller available in this game. Should have bought the gamecube version I guess...

As a result of this, this is the first Zelda since the 16 bit generation that I did not finish...not even close actually.

This  is when I began to realize me and Nintendo are going to have issues this generation.
